What is the point of this? I don't see a situation where this would be a better choice over:
(1) XSLT
(2) Regular programming language e.g. Java / .NET and use the XML libraries to build the document.
Also with the navigation e.g. UP; it looks hard to maintain.
I can imagine production code ending up with:
UP;
UP;
UP;
UP;
UP;
A simple change to the XML structure and this will break so easily.
- killertypo 12y agothis supports PUSH and POP so you could easily PUSH the current node dive deep deep deep deep (and even have no problem adding more later) then POP the original location back.
- bbcbasic 12y agoThat ain't a whole lot better. But if you are only doing very simple stuff that you could do quite simply in XSLT anyway then it is probably fine. Although XSLT may be preferable anyway due to tooling support.
